Locusta

Background

Progressive blackened death metal from Columbus, Ohio named after a female chemist from Ancient Rome regarded as the first documented serial killer. LOCUSTA released their debut full-length via Kentucky-based Pragmatic Records upon an unsuspecting underground earlier this year. The 10-track, self-titled offering was recorded/engineered by Brian Simakis at Capital City Studios, mastered by Dan Randall at Mammoth Sound Mastering and features strikingly stark cover art by local artist Stefan Hoza.
